Wed, 31 Mar 2010 18:31:58 +0000http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/80beats/?p=12681#comment-17574It’s a little more complicated than the opinion above puts it.

First the “free world” is not paying as much attention as our politically slanted cable news stations might make it seem. I’m willing to bet that m, doesn’t know that no other countries other than Brittain, and the Netherlands ever had more than 2,000 troops deloyed in Iraq at any one time.

Second there are “nutballs” in every religion. I’d advise m, to read the news this week about the 9 militia men in MI that were planning to kill a cop and then kill more cops at the first one’s funeral. They wear camo uniforms with black Christian crosses on the shoulders.

Third, politics runs everything not common sense. Go back to m’s, example about the “nutballs”. 19 of the 20 men that highjacked those planes on 9/11 were born and raised in Saudi Arabia. Yet we invaded Iraq. Its partly because the US’s relationship with the Saudis and the UAE is too valuable to put at risk. Now, apply that last sentence to our relationship with China. They own most of the US’s debt, and they have a military to be reconned with, so even if it were somehow ok for us to impose our own views on other countries, we still wouldn’t pick on the country that we import a lot of our goods from, and that we owe the most money to.

The issue is even more complicated than I just made it seem, and I admit that I don’t have all the facts, but I’m aware enough to know that having knee-jerk reactions like the comment above don’t help anyone. If m want’s to see examples of facism here in America, he can just look at our Patriot Act, or the warrant-less wire tapping bill. Also, there are the companies that outsource American jobs to these “fascist” countries because our country gives them tax breaks to do so.

Let’s fix the problems in our own house before we go kick down our neighbor’s doors.
